Although gun control remains a controversial issue, when it comes to insuring firearms, Homeowners coverage offers some clear guidelines.
If you have rifles and pistols in your home, your policy will insure them against fire damage or theft, usually up to $2,500. Although a Homeowners application might not ask specifically about firearms, the higher liability risk that guns present means that failing to inform your agent or insurance company in advance about them could result in denial of a claim for loss or damage to them.
Because of this greater liability exposure, your insurer might require you to show that you’ve taken such sensible precautions as installing trigger locks, securing firearms properly in locked gun cases, and keeping them away from children. If you have a collection of guns that’s particularly valuable (for example, antique sidearms), you might need to buy a policy rider that ensures their replacement or reimbursement — much as with other big-ticket items, such as jewelry and fine art.
If you shoot someone else or yourself accidentally while in the home, your policy might pay for some or all of the damages, (medical bills, property damage, liability claims, and so forth), depending on the amount of coverage. However, to guarantee full protection, you would need additional policy riders, such as “Sporting Firearm insurance,” “Collector’s Firearm insurance,” or “Gun Club Liability insurance.”

Countless advertisements depict “Flo”, or a gecko, as possible advocates in the insurance arena. Hopefully our competitors will take the bait and settle on a fictitious character or a reptile to save a few bucks. Our firm sees the value in the genuine article, the seasoned professional. The Scurich Family has provided both insurance products and valued advice to my family for three generations. Many uncertainties exist today in business; fortunately, the excellence with which Scurich Insurance Services serves its clients is not one of them. Their expertise, as a broker, to competitively shop for coverages, has helped us manage costs–without unnecessary exposure. We have referred several friends and colleagues to the Scurich agency, for both commercial and personal lines, all of whom have experienced the same high level of professionalism from the partners and their well-trained, courteous staff. I look forward to the day when the fourth generations of our two families are able to continue this mutually beneficial relationship. ~ Louis Ivanovich, V.P. West Lake Fresh, Watsonville, CA
In the early 80’s I was approached by Tony Scurich himself about his insurance opportunities and I really loved the idea of a local family owned business. We insured them with our previous business and then when we opened Lakeside Organic Garden it was a no brainer who to insure with. If I had to Rate Scurich insurance I would rate them as an 11 on a scale from 1-10 because of their excellent customer service and the ease of trusting them through their honesty. ~ Joanne Lynch, President, Lakeside Organic Gardens

The nationwide debate over gun control in the aftermath of the Newtown massacre has raised a number of issues — including potential insurance liability for businesses in states that permit citizens to carry concealed weapons. Here’s why:
A company that allows customers or visitors on its premises has a legal obligation to exercise “reasonable care” in keeping them safe, a responsibility that includes warning them about any hidden dangerous conditions. For example, in states with “concealed carry” laws, a store owner might need to post warnings that sales clerks are armed.
Let’s say that an employee carrying a concealed weapon negligently or deliberately shoots a customer who is legitimately on the premises of the business — and the customer then sues the employer for bodily injury. On the other hand, suppose that an employer forbids workers from carrying weapons on the job. If an employee is attacked and beaten at work, he or she might sue for damages from bodily injury, claiming that the employer’s ban on firearms in the workplace impaired the employee’s ability for self-defense.
Although your Commercial General Liability (CGL) policy should provide coverage against such claims, it makes sense to minimize this risk by taking pre-emptive action. One effective approach: To seek an exemption from the scope of the concealed-weapon law (if one doesn’t already exist), giving you the authority to forbid weapons in the workplace. Make it clear to all employees and potential employees that company policy forbids bringing weapons onto the premises. You might also conduct comprehensive pre-employment screening to help hire stable, sensible people who are unlikely to settle disagreements with lethal force.
